TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to telecommunications enclosures, andmore particularly to telecommunications enclosures including cableclamps for fiber optic cables.

BACKGROUND

Telecommunications system typically employ a network oftelecommunications cables capable of transmitting large volumes of dataand voice signals over relatively long distances. Telecommunicationscables can include fiber optic cables, electrical cables, orcombinations of electrical and fiber optic cables. A typicaltelecommunications network also includes a plurality oftelecommunications enclosures integrated throughout the network oftelecommunications cables. The telecommunications enclosures or“closures” are adapted to house and protect telecommunicationscomponents such as splices, termination panels, power splitters, andwave division multiplexers.

It is often preferred for telecommunications enclosures to bere-enterable. The term “re-enterable” means that the telecommunicationsenclosures can be reopened to allow access to the telecommunicationscomponents housed therein without requiring the removal and destructionof the telecommunications enclosures. For example, certaintelecommunications enclosures can include separate access panels thatcan be opened to access the interiors of the enclosures, and then closedto reseal the enclosures. Other telecommunications enclosures take theform of elongated sleeves formed by wrap around covers or half-shellshaving longitudinal edges that are joined by clamps or other retainers.Still other telecommunications enclosures include two half-pieces thatare joined together through clamps, wedges or other structures.Telecommunications enclosures are typically sealed to inhibit theintrusion of moisture or other contaminants.
